The Cavaliers have been run off the court in Games 1 and 2. They have been outplayed by losing both by 22 and 19 points. LeBron James has played about as well as they could have asked. The “King” put up 29 points, 14 assists and 11 rebounds in Game 2. The Warriors have been in complete control in the fourth quarters of each game.
Golden State is averaging an incredible 122.5 points per game in the NBA Finals. Kevin Durant has been incredible, averaging 35.5 points, 11.0 rebounds, 7.0 assists, 2.5 blocks and 1.5 steals per game. Paired with Steph Curry, who’s averaging 30.0 points per game in the Finals, it’s hard to see how the Cavaliers can win this series unless one of these two cools off.
Golden State has won all 14 of their playoffs games so far. They’ll somehow have to lose four of the next six games if they’re to fall in the NBA Finals.
